Be prepeared with your camera:

Try to use automatic bracket exposure preset
3 pictures with 1 stop in between them

this gives one usable shot 

but uses up batteries and memory

See here:

Cutton is the best

Protect yourself (scarf long)

hide camera

as a blanket

a pillow (for camera too)

å towel

againt the sun (head)

against dust (head)

Moving pictures

Sometimes you have to take photo from someting moving ….

Like a fast boat or a ferry, this might requiere a fast shutter speed and paning technic use of the camera. to track other boats or other moving subjects

Continious focusing mode and shoot many shots so one might be sharp.
